I like the silicone hose it seals better and looks good, might as well do them all at once. You can do the Dejon elbow and all the hoses and clamps for under $200. I want to do the Dejon IC tubes soon but doing the new Solo cat first and that shoots my allowance for this month.

Pictures, Go-N def that would be your job next weekend.

Thank you for the information. I will also remember that it's the intake elbow and not the turbo elbow.

Edit: Also, thanks for specifying ID..you are right, Verocious makes it clear what size clamp you need for any ID.
